Big three personal (work) agents review:
- Grok Bot is still the best. 7/10 tasks it gets right. Best at connecting to tools. Connection to X is amazing. It was better two weeks ago and has definitely been nerfed. Don’t know if I will continue using it if it doesn’t improve. What I’m still using it for: coding tasks with cursor cloud agents. Just works.
- Claude Duet is promising. Separate mobile app. Powerful models. OK desktop UX. Task-first UI is really intuitive and makes it easy to manage lots of projects. Connectors are super unreliable though. Having issues with simple stuff like reading emails. 6/10 tasks successful. It’s also a bit more proactive than Grok Bot which is what has kept me coming back to it despite tool failures. It makes genuinely good recommendations. This might become my primary bot with a bit more care.
- ChatGPT Dot feels clunky in the apps. It desperately needs a standalone mobile app. The slack integration is probably the highlight, but the whole experience feels lacklustre compared to Grok and Duet which have more magic moments. No sub bots like Grok, no task manager like Duet. It’s proactive but misses most good flags. Maybe 5/10 tasks are successful. Obviously being powered by astra gives it big bonus points for work and coding tasks. And custom dot characters rock. 🐸
